others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

This invention relates to new and useful improvements in dish washin machines, the object in view being to a ord means to speedily and perfectly cleanse dishes or other soiled tableware with safety and in aconvenient manner.

The invention comprises a simple and efficient device of this character having various details of construction, combination and arrangement of parts which will be hereinafter fully described, shown in the accompanying drawings and then specifically defined in the appended claims.

The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings which, with the letters of reference marked thereon, form a part of this application, and in which: l

Figure l1 is a front elevation of a dish washing machine constructedin accordance with my invention.

Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same, showing the body in section, and

Fig. 3 is a top view with the cover partly broken away to better show the construction and arrangement of parts.

Reference now being had to the details of the drawings by letter:

A designates the dish holder, which vis a cylindrical vessel, preferably made of sheet l. oxidizing material, there being a removable metal, which may be coated with a noncover B provided which fits closely, land handles C at the sides affordmeans for conveniently handling.

A faucet D is secured near the bottom of the dish holder A toenable the free drainage of water from the receptacle named, and within the vessel are two horizontal dish supporting circular disks E and F arranged to revolve in opposite directions.

T theremovable cover B is attached a bracket G to which is secured a horizontal arm H,its outer end formin a bearing for the main bevel gear wheel I. ngaging with said wheel I are bevel gears J J', J bein secured near the upper end of vertical sha t K, and J secured to vertical sleeve L. The upper bearin for vertical shaft K is at M, in bracket whence said 'shaft extends downward, journaled throu h the arm H and terminating in a collar at the lower end, in which 1s formed a square tapering socket into which fits a` corresponding square tapering pin formed upon the upper end of another section K of asimilar shaft,

which extends downward through sleeve L.

to the bottom of dish-holderA, where it is provided with a cup-sha d bearing O.

The horizontal arm is perforated at P, allowing the free passage of vertical shaft K. A horizontal circular disk E is secured flange Q; This disk is provided with a series of upright loops or brackets R, made preferably o spring wire; and centrally'between the vertical sides of these loo s is a coiled spring S, one end of each spring be toA vertical shaft K. near the `lower end by similarly to the disk E4 and secured to the lower end of vertical sleeve Lby flanged collar U, the disk and sleeve being retained at the proper height in dish-holder `A, by collar V attached to shaft K.

A wire v.basket W is removably secured within the dish-holder near the top by lugs X and in this basket knives, forks, spoons and small articles may be placed and thoroughly washed by the splashing of water caused by the rapid revolving of the disks carrying the lar r ware.

In use, the dis s E and F also basket W are properly packed with dishes that require cleansing, as indicated in Fig. 2. This should be so executed as to` render the mass measurably firm, so that improper rattling of the ware will be prevented. When the unwashed dishes have been introduced as stated, hot water, with soap or other detergent material in proper quantity, is poured over them and the cover B is placed upon the dish-washer vvA; when by vturning the crank Y the disks carrying the dishes are 'caused to revolve rapidly in opposite directions thus causing a thorough and rapid circulation of the soapy water through the dishes and other ware, removing the grease and other coating from the table-ware in an expeditions and perfect manner.

he soapsuds are now drawn off from the dish-holder A, and the cover B removed to replenish the supply of washing liquid with Hrwarm' water as a rinsing douche that is thrown upon and through the mass of dishes by again turning the crank Y for` a few moments, Whenvt e faucet D is again opened and the water removed from the dish-holder,

the contents being left to drain a few mo-v ments, when they may be removed and dried with a napkin or towel in the usual manner. The simplicity, ease of operation, and

avoidance of numerous parts, as well as perfection and rapidity of execution of; the

work, are points of manifest excellence pertaining to the device.

What I claim to be new is:

1. T hej combination` with a cylindrical dish-holding vessel, of a plurality of hori- `zontal circular disks mounted within said a `rotatable vertical sleeve thereabove also carryinga dish-supporting disk, and mechanism arranged torotate it in an opposite direction to the shaft.

In testimony whereof I hereunto aiix my signature.
